What could be wrong? I restarted watch several times and when I go to change watch face, I only get the preset options. Facer, ticker, etc do not show as a selection.
All notifications and things are working.

Have you tried the "Resync apps" option in the Android Wear app? I would try that and wait about 10-15 minutes.
What the issue was....I believe was my watCh was on a firmware version that didn't support lollipop. After some time connected it told me there was an update. I did that and the faces were an option.

Hey guys, I wasn't sure if this warranted it's own thread, but I think it does since there's no "Ask Any Question!" sticky like some of the big boards.
Anyway, when listening to music through Pandora, I have a persistent notification allowing me to pause/play my music from my Moto 360. Can I turn it off? Notifications are very large and block the face so I can't tell the time. Normally, I'm okay with swiping others away, but this one is persistent. I tried adding Pandora to the notification mute list in the Wear app, but that didn't work. I can mute all notifications, that's not what I'm after. Can I just turn off music control somewhere?

Go to Android Wear app on your phone, select the Cog Gears (Settings) icon on top right corner. Select first option "Mute app notifications", select Pandora or any apps you don't want notifications to be pushed to your watch. Done!

Is there a way to disable ALL notifications? I dont see a reason to get notifications on my watch when I always have my phone on me. I guess you could say I got it for an advanced watch, not another gadget to notify me of e-mail, etc

You can just pull down from the top of the watch until it vibrates and says "Mute" then you won't get any notifications until you repeat those steps to unmute it
For some reason, this trick doesn't work with tune in radio
Really?

Ummmm, you did know it was a smartwatch when you bought it? If your not using it, as a smart watch, then I don't see the point of you owning it... Just saying.

Wanting to get rid of a persistent notification that bothers him hardly puts him in the category of not using it as a smartwatch.
Even if you turned off all notifications, it's still a smart watch, it runs apps, responds to voice queries, keeps your phone unlocked, etc...

Remember during initial setup when it asked you to activate the Android Wear notification listener service? Undo that. Then it has no idea when you have a notification.

This doesn't work for Spotify either. Are there any other idea's?
Just adding my voice... it's a really annoying 'feature' of Android Wear (or Wear OS, as it now seems to be called).
I went through and I disabled every single notification (about 300 or so of them) and the media notification still appears, and doesn't time out. This is annoying because it lights up the screen which eats through my battery. Why can't it auto-hide itself LIKE EVERY OTHER NOTIFICATION?
Grrr....
I've had my Moto for about a week and up to now I had no Problems. Since yesterday the notifications are not showing on my watch face. They do reach my watch but are not showing on their own. If I swipe up I can see These notifications but they don't blend into the watch face on Arrival at the watch.
Has anybody an idea. I have rebooted the watch several times.
I have the exact same problem. Does your watch vibrate when you receive texts etc.?
It does seem to vibrate but the vibrations on my watch are so quiet and weak that I mostly miss them.

Oh that's weird.
I get the notifications, but the watch won't turn on.. and it won't vibrate. I have to swipe up like you said.
do you have card previews checked off on android wear app?? if you do and still doesn't work, try resetting the watch..
Also you may have the notifications hidden try swiping up from the bottom of the watch screen to unhide them, this is what happened to me
I deinstalled android wear, deleted the Bluetooth Pairing and reset the watch. I then reinstalled AW and pair as a new wearable. Everything seems to be working now.
Hi,
I have just added a "make notifications vibration stronger" feature in last SWApp Launcher Wear version:
https://plus.google.com/+CyrilPreiss0/posts/CUX1DsHCTTw
Hi, I had befor Sony SmartWatch. Just as usual for recieving notifications.
After android wear is here, it's a lot more than notifications
Anyhow, I am working kind of online service reply over my phone
Using all kind of social apps which bring notifications to my moto 360
Going back to Sony smart watch, I can turn off notification while phone screen is on, because I am working on the phone and it's obvious I can see the notifications from phone, so no need to vibrate and wake my watch,
But.....
Android wear making me crazy each time tens of notifications via chat and groups while am chatting, makes my watch vibration machine! I hate it.
Any apps can turn off wear notifications while phone screen is on?!
Try Theater mode, which is already built into your watch:

U can try Feel the wear free app. It very useful. I can set up my 360 watch don't viberate when the phone on (in your case) and customize the vibarte level for each app.

Any luck with the Feel the Wear app?
I have an Asus Zenwatch (1st generation) running Android OS 5.1.1 and Android Wear 1.3.0.2160025 and I have it connected to my Google Nexus 6P. I assume this is the latest version available for the Zenwatch as when I try and update the software it advises me I am up to date.
One of the great things I love about Android Wear and the Zenwatch is the ability for me to pull down the notifications menu and change from no notifications, to priority notifications, to all notifications.
I normally keep notifications set at no most of the time and change it to priority when I'm out with friends etc. However, notifications do not stay on the setting I define.
Every day I set notifications to no and then I will hear it vibrating when I get a new whatsapp notification and when I check the watch notifications are set to all; despite the fact I never changed anything.
Has anyone else experienced this?
My first thought was that my clothes were touching the screen and pulling the menu down, however I have tried moving my wrist around in many different ways and my clothes never change the screen at all. Which leads me to believe it's software related.
I think the setting is tied into the quiet or priority mode settings on the phone. That is, if you set priority mode on the watch, it also sets it on the phone, and vice versa. Would that explain the behavior you're seeing? You set priority mode on the watch, and later un-set it on the phone (and thus on the watch, too)?

Thanks for the response CSX.
I changes the notification settings on the watch but nothing changed on the phone and vice versa.
I had been charging it there and it was set to no and when I checked it again it was set to all. So it is definitely a software or settings issue as its changing on its own afford when the phone is stationary.
Has anyone found a solution to this? It's very annoying and discouraging me from ever wearing it. I want notifications off the majority of the time, but whatever I do, they remain active.
Change default settings or watch setting to do not disturb.........

I have done that. That is the problem. I change it to do not disturb and a few minutes later it vibrates because of a new notification and it has changed back to all notifications. It does this all the time, even when the phone is idle on my computer desk.
Hi guys!
In the past I had an Android watch, a Pebble, several Samsung watches... The best one so far was Android.
Samsung Galaxy watch would be almost perfect if it hadn't this stupid "feature"
In short, the notification dot on the watch is there to notify you when there are unread notifications on the watch, not on your mobile phone. One would say, so what, that's not a problem...
Figure this - if you have the " turn screen on" and "show notification details" options on, then everything you get on your watch gets dismissed immediately! How stupid is that??
Is there a workaround for this, am I the only one bothered by this?
I love how Android wear has this solved. Not only that you have a notification on your watch persistent until you dismissed it on your phone or your watch but also it shows details in a form of cards...
Same settings on my watch. Notifications don't get deleted
Mine do not get deleted too. However, if you clear the notification on your watch it does remove it from your phone too.

They don't get deleted, just the orange dot disappears, leaving me unaware of a new notification...

so easy just go to notification settings in the galaxy watch app and remove the toggle beside the turn on screen option. its useless anyways. if its on, the the orange dot wont appear because it auto dismisses it by design.

I know exactly what you mean. All notifications disappear way too easily! If you accidentally go to far, it's gone. Missed it! FTS! FFS!
I tried for long time to try to find a fix. Samsung has to fix this. NOTHING the user can do!

I do like those two options, so I can immediately see the notification on my screen without touching it..... but the only interaction at that point is to scroll up or down to read the notification details or touch the three-dots on the right and select "Clear Notifications" If I clear notification, then that's what happens... notification gone (it would be nice if I could just swipe sideways to clear, because for some notifications I have to then scroll to the bottom of a list of options to select clear notifications). If I don't "Clear Notifications" and ignore it, then the notification disappears from the watch screen, The watch goes back to displaying the watch face, there will NOT be an orange dot on the watch face, but the notification will be in my watch's notifications queue for me to look at later, AND the notification will be on my phone.
Seems like that's about exactly how I want it.
I have "Mute connected phone" set in the Wearable app notifications settings, because if I am wearing my watch, I want the watch to be what notifies me; not my phone. Also, I have the new OneUI on the watch.
Same problem here. I'd like to have notifications to be persistent until I explicitly dismiss them. On my Galaxy watch a notification disappears after I saw it. Is there some setting? Thanks!
So I just got the galaxy watch 5 and had this problem. I found that some how my phone got put in do not disturb. Once I turned that off all my notifications came up.
